We all know that Cordyceps sinensis is valuable, but mining Cordyceps sinensis brings more serious damage to Tibetan land.

When it comes to Cordyceps sinensis, the first thought in my mind is precious. Indeed, Cordyceps sinensis is a valuable Chinese herbal medicine, which grows in Xizang, Qinghai, Yunnan, Sichuan and other regions of our country. It's a strange combination of insects and grass. Our country has been in the habit of eating Cordyceps sinensis since ancient times.

The function of Cordyceps sinensis

Cordyceps sinensis is recorded in the Compendium of Materia Medica, a classical medical work in China. Cordyceps sinensis has certain nourishing and medicinal value. Cordyceps sinensis can improve human immunity. It also has the functions of anti-cancer, relieving fatigue, regulating liver and so on. With the continuous understanding of Cordyceps sinensis, the price of Cordyceps sinensis is going up all the way, and the mining in Xizang area is becoming more and more serious.

The method of picking Cordyceps sinensis

Cordyceps sinensis is a unique fungus in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. The efficacy of Cordyceps sinensis mentioned above is more serious in recent years because of these effects. There are still many growing areas of Cordyceps sinensis, but the quality of Cordyceps sinensis in Qinghai and Xizang is the best because of their unique geographical environment. This also poses a great threat to these two regions.

Because Cordyceps sinensis generally grows above 3000 meters above sea level, Cordyceps sinensis usually begins to grow in May and can be dug in June. But many people are driven by interests to start digging in June, which is very easy to cause landslides.

The method of mining is to use a small shovel to dig on the mountain. Sometimes there is more Cordyceps sinensis, and there may be a dozen Cordyceps sinensis in a square, so many people often start digging without waiting for Cordyceps sinensis to grow well. There are often large and small pits on the meadow, with a depth of about ten centimeters, but few people backfill them. And because of repeated search for Cordyceps sinensis meadow was repeatedly trampled by people, seriously affecting the growth of meadow vegetation.

There was an experiment conducted by researchers who dug a Cordyceps sinensis in Yushu in the 1960s, leaving a hole with a big fist. As a result, the hole still existed 40 years later, and it also expanded. You can imagine how serious the harm of a large amount of Cordyceps sinensis is.

However, we all know that the vegetation in Qinghai and Xizang is very fragile, once destroyed, it is difficult to restore, resulting in serious soil erosion and vegetation damage. Moreover, it will also lead to the decline of the quality of Cordyceps sinensis, a large number of Cordyceps sinensis and other problems.

The above comes from promoting agriculture through science.
